À vélo de Kilo à Teekkarikylä

This bike ride is a pleasant, mostly flat journey from Kilo to the Helsinki University of Technology (often called “Teekkari Village” by the locals). You’ll roll out of the quiet Kilo suburb and mostly cruise along dedicated cycleways—no need to worry about car traffic on this route!

After leaving Kilo’s cozy residential streets, you’ll head southeast, passing tree-lined paths and occasional glimpses of local parks. Nearly the entire ride is paved—with a smooth mix of asphalt and a touch of gravel—so a regular bike will do just fine. The route’s gentle ups and downs are easy to handle, making it great for a relaxed commute or an easy workout.

Your journey wraps up at the legendary student village, home to thousands of Aalto University students. The area is known for its unique architectural style and the buzzing student life, especially in spring when the events season starts.

All in all, this is a super convenient and scenic shortcut between two vibrant Espoo neighborhoods—perfect for daily cycling or a chilled weekend ride.
